Today I stopped in a LHS and purchased a V2. The BT of the kit was out of round, not creased, just out of round at one end. Something that will most probably be corrected by the centering rings and tail cone.
I asked the proprietor if he would discount the kit due to the damage. He agreed and gave me 10% off. As I walked away, the high of getting the discount wore off as I started to think about the fact that I just took $ out of his bottom line for something that really isn't a problem.
Wont too much of this type of behavior accelerate their path to extinction? Maybe I am over thinking (as I tend to do)
I'm just wondering how the rest of the community feels about this sort of thing. Do you barter at your LHS?
